Comments at Steve Sailer:
* What happens when you have a showdown with nature, nature wins. Nature has been separating species by means of race as Darwin noticed with finches. All that is happening is nature is asserting her will.
* What you won’t hear, except from me, is that “Let the good times roll” is an especially risky message for African-Americans. The plain fact is that they tend to possess poorer native judgment than members of better-educated groups. Thus they need stricter moral guidance from society.
* Not long ago, Steve asked us what the Left’s next big concerted push would be, since their World War Gay & Tranny offensives succeeded.
I think that we are seeing the answer now. It’s not something new & exciting like normalizing pedophilia or incest or polygamy like many predicted.
Instead it looks like they are going back to their OG issue: White racism.
Maybe we are looking at a ratcheting cyclic pattern: Lead with race stuff to establish moral bona fides, follow that up with woman stuff & end with sexual preference stuff.
We’ve seen it before in the 60′s: Civil Rights –> Women’s Lib –> Stonewall. Then again in the 90′s: PC Culture –> Rape Culture hysteria –> ACT UP.
And someone could make the case that the recent World War T victory was the and of another cycle that started in the 2000′s with the launch of the White Privilege concept.
Each time, the Left pushes the envelope of anti straight white Christian male rhetoric & demands further & further.
The Civil Rights demands for treating blacks equally morphed into a demand for special perks & privileges through affirmative action & a refusal to notice black misbehavior through Political Correctness. Now Black Lives Matters is demanding that whites allow blacks to do & have whatever they want, without interference from white (or even black) authorities in any manner.
I can’t wait to see what other treats this next cycle has in store for me.
* One time I was at the White House Correspondents Dinner (when Colbert notoriously addressed W.) and was lucky to meet Justice Thomas. I mentioned we shared an intellectual hero in Thomas Sowell, and the immediate reaction from the judge was “Oh he’s a wiz at math!” A couple years later I read The Bell Curve and then The Bell Curve Wars and emailed John Derbyshire for his opinion of Sowell’s opinion included in the latter. His response was to the effect, Tom doesn’t know the math enough to know what follows what on the matter. From that I deduce that the black intellect is prone to oversights in subtle ways more complicated than brute IQ. On that note, consider this passage from Santayana’s Scepticism and Animal Faith I just recently enjoyed:
“Belief in experience is the beginning of that bold instinctive art, more plastic than the instinct of most animals, by which man has raised himself to his earthly eminence: it opens the gates of nature to him, both within him and without, and enables him to transmute his apprehension, at first merely AESTHETIC, into MATHEMATICAL SCIENCE. This is so great a step that most minds cannot take it. They stumble, and remain entangled in poetry and in gnomic wisdom. Science and reasonable virtue, which plunge their roots in the soil of nature, are to this day only partially welcome and understood. Although they bring freedom in the end, the approach to them seems sacrificial, and many prefer to live in the glamor of intuition, not having the courage to believe in experience.”
I think that passage is worth rereading, and hints at all sort of contexts we are currently living midst. Smartphone nation could be considered consonant with an evolution in criminal science, as Steve has said. But what we are seeing from blacks is more akin to an aesthetic intuition, in the sense that these murders and shootings would fit snug a dramatic script, and drama is not usually rational. This stuff is out of some apocalyptic movie. With the native judgment we know they enjoy, we should now know what such cinema as the two videos that sparked the latest incidents moves particulars of that certain population to do. It seems life can imitate art by anticipating it.
* A Democratic National Committee staffer was beaten and shot dead as he walked home. I’ll bet the guy who murdered him was a black man riled-up by all the recent scheming on the part of the Democratic National Committee. They seem to think they’re immune to the effects of their own machiavellianism.
* Sometimes when the police try to arrest someone who is armed and actively engaged in a crime, they shoot at the police in an attempt to get away. Shots were fired causing the call. It might have been gang related, a robbery gone wrong or an altercation that got out of hand.
I don’t like it when the President jumps to conclusions knowing little more than the parties involved.
* Restraint, whilst being the solution demanded by liberals, Leach and Obama, is not the answer for blacks. Blacks only respect strength and the threat of violence. Restraint is liable to increase violence. To understand black behavior in the US, you need to study it in Africa. Since blacks have been interacting with whites in South Africa for 350 years, it would be a suitable place to do this. Of course nobody wants to touch it, because invariably it would lead to Apartheid being rehabilitated. Many politicians and media elites know this.
Black on white interaction is culturally doomed. The best you can achieve is a form of implicit Apartheid, much like the way Israel deals with Palestinians within Israel. Most blacks need simple uncomplicated jobs. The black high-performers which the media like to rub in our faces, are mostly AA creations meant to shame and intimidate whites. They add no real value to black society. Most simple jobs have been offshored, so Trump’s ideas, if implemented, are likely to improve the wealth and self-esteem of ordinary blacks. Then in the black areas black police officers keep the peace, but the rules need to be different from white areas, much more in accordance with traditional African tribal law, since blacks psychologically cannot cope with the moral and legal demands of European and US law. This psychological overload is the source of much of the black violence against cops. That was the reason why white South Africa kept traditional tribal law in place in black areas. Everything else is a train wreck.
Obama and the Soros-elites are just creating an environment where blacks can live out their grievances, offences and hatreds against whites. This is what the mostly western revolutionary elite (run by the usual suspects) did in South Africa as well. The idea is to max. chaos and intimidate ordinary whites into relinquising power. Yet they have no solution for the incompatibility of blacks with white legal systems, because it is not what they are after.
* Black Panther leader urges creation of ‘black’ country: Alabama part of ‘nation-within-a-nation’
A leader in the People’s New Black Panther Party is urging the creation of a new country within in the U.S.
Babu Omowale, the national minister of defense for the People’s New Black Panther Party, told radio host Aaron Klein his group and others are working to establish a government in a nation within a nation. The five states that would make up the new nation would be Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina.
“We just need to start migrating back to those states and taking control of the economics in those states. If black people move in, most definitely white people will move out. So it’s not a hard process for us to have our own country within a country,” Omowale told Klein. The comments were first reported on Breitbart News, a conservative website.
Omowale later elaborated saying the short-term steps would be to work to control economies and politics in each of the areas.
Omowale’s comments came amid growing tensions over the police-involved shootings of two black men followed by the slaying of five Dallas policeman last week.
